2013 Nursery Trends: Vintage Made Modern

The Jenny Lind crib is a tried-and-true classic. This crib has popped up in our gallery countless times, and we’ve noticed that it’s usually paired with a vintage or traditional nursery style. Since we love the idea of taking a classic look and putting an updated spin on it, we decided to design a vintage nursery with a more modern twist.

For this Vintage Made Modern design board, which we created for the MDB Nursery Trends Event, we chose the Jenny Lind crib in a beautiful hue of turquoise for an unexpected pop of color. We then added hot pink and kelly green accents to create a vibrant and fresh color palette. The sleek white of the dressers and rocker brings in the perfect amount of modern to the space and really blends the traditional and modern styles.

With a passion for decorating and design, it was Melisa's experience as a first time mom, that inspired her to start Project Nursery. Melisa lives back east with her three kids, Austin, Chase and new baby girl Emerson—thrilled that she can now finally decorate with the color pink!
